These people are up for re-election to Whiteside County Board.

These people overrode the zoning board’s majority vote of 5-2 to stop zoning even more land to strip mining. These people voted to destroy even more valuable farmland to be bagged up and sold; one bag at a time through retail stores.

If you approve of strip mining, vote them back in. If you disapprove of the continuing destruction of valuable, producing agriculture lands and everyone who makes a living off of it – from ADM employees to the farmhand and the farmer caught in the middle – vote them out.

Remember, they can’t manufacture more farmland – not even in a Third World country, which is what we’ll be when we run out of enough land to feed our people.
